Goat Grazing and Vegetation Management Pilot Program

Solicitation # Capra Agreement

The City of South Pasadena is initiating a one-month pilot program to manage vegetation and reduce wildfire risk on 35 acres of City-owned or City-controlled land located within 100 feet of residential structures in High and Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones. The primary method of fuel reduction will be targeted goat grazing, supplemented by limited hand or mechanical vegetation clearance where needed, focusing on flammable invasive species such as dry grasses and brush that act as primary wildfire fuels. These efforts are designed to create natural firebreaks by thinning dense vegetation, thereby slowing fire spread and reducing fire intensity in the wildland-urban interface, which enhances defensible space around homes and improves firefighter safety and effectiveness during emergencies. All activities will be conducted by professional staff under the City’s direct oversight, with the authority to modify or terminate operations at any time based on changing site conditions or environmental concerns. The program is framed as a temporary, trial initiative to evaluate the efficacy of goat grazing as a sustainable and targeted tool for fire hazard mitigation.
